RE: DFW riding clubs??
There is the Texas Sport Bike Association. I might join...if they turn to riding more than eating bar-ba-cue.
They seem like good guys...but...just haven't checked them out thoroughly.
I can eat anywhere, and don't have to pay extra for eating and opinions on riding. That's why I have the internet if I want to talk about riding on a crap weather day. Sorry...just seems too pedestrian...
Hmmmm...
I might start my own...time, and mine and anyone else I run into and their enthusiasm as a whole permitting.
If I do...I now lay claim to this name...
Texas Twisted Riders Association... copyright pending...pfftt...
No dues, I rent a site/server anyway, and don't plan on selling t-shirts, coffee mugs,(lol).
2-3 times a month ride through the best back roads in Texas...and beyond.
One planned trip would be The Badlands of South Dakota.
Also, 2-3 Track days to meet up at durng the warmer months. Some in state, some out.
Planned rides with cool people.
D/FW, Golden Traingle area.

Club or no...I'm going to this place...hopefully this fall...
I know someone who took a trip there...very challenging ride...and best to man up on gas and protection.
You could disappear by someone's hand...and there would be no one to know.
Kinda scary...ain't it.
For centuries humans have viewed South Dakota's celebrated Badlands with a mix of dread and fascination. The Lakota knew the place as "mako sica". Early French trappers called the area "les mauvaises terres a traverser". Both mean "bad lands." Conservation writer Freeman Tilden described the region as "peaks and valleys of delicately banded colors - colors that shift in the sunshine... and a thousand tints that color charts do not show. In the early morning and evening, when shadows are cast upon the infinite peaks or on a bright moonlit night when the whole region seems a part of another world, the Badlands will be an experience not easily forgotten
Frank Lloyd Wright in 1935, "but I was totally unprepared for that revelation called the Dakota Bad Lands.... What I saw gave me an indescribable sense of mysterious elsewhere - a distant architecture, ethereal..., an endless supernatural world more spiritual than earth but created out of it."
